In August 2003, pizza delivery driver Brian Wells robbed a bank in Erie, Pennsylvania, with a bomb strapped to his neck. He didn't get far: Wells died after the bomb exploded, his agonizing last minutes caught on police dash cams. The mind-boggling crime, also known as the collar bomb heist and the pizza bomber, is the starting point for Netflix's Evil Genius: The True Story of America's Most Diabolical Bank Heist. Before we're taken through the truly bizarre events of that day, we're introduced to Marjorie Diehl-Armstrong, a longtime Erie resident who, we're told, had a difficult childhood and later developed mental illness. Any further analysis will have to wait, though. The four-part series, produced by the Duplass brothers and directed by Barbara Schroeder, devotes its first episode to Wells, who was supposed to be sent on a macabre scavenger hunt after robbing the bank. A stoic coroner explains that they had to decapitate Wells (in a "caring way") in order to get the clunky bomb off, something his family was not happy about. He's painted as a quiet man who happened to get involved with some bad elements, but over four episodes that focus gets softer.
